Following recent releases named as Gramophone Editor's Choice, Sunday Times Album of the Week, and MusicWeb Recording of the Month, the HallÃ© turns to one of Vaughan Williams' most popular works, The Wasps' Overture. From the opening orchestral buzzing of a swarm of wasps, it emerges as one of English music's great tunes; a showcase for the vivid orchestral colors of Vaughan Williams' writing, presented here to the height of effect by the acclaimed musicians of the HallÃ© Orchestra.
